Some comments:

5.4.1
Done in CVS - I have Control Center in Kstart menu.

5.4.2
This is a problem in KDE - there are too many different wordings for 
very similar or identical actions.

5.5.1
KFind wildcards - I think problem was discussed here after previous 
Relevantive report and consensus was their proposition is good.  
Silently rejected by developers?

5.5.2
Defining a date - problem was solved by using only popup calendar and 
choosing date after click on day.5.5.1

"Still some obscurities remain. You would expect that the calender would 
close
when a user hits the button to open the menu (recognized by an arrow 
pointing
down). Well this is not the case. Even worse, when a user pushes that button
and he already did change some dates by using the blue buttons for year and
month, then those changes are lost. You need to set the dates again and 
finally
you need to hit enter to close the dialog."

This problem could be solved by adding small OK button on the right 
sight of date. There is some place.

What I find disturbing is <Esc> does not work for canceling action.

5.5.3
I like it. Visual feedback like in Konq tabs.

BTW, it could be implemented everywhere in KDE, eg. in KOrganizer in 
events dialog.

5.6.4
'All contacts' is a good idea. My suggestion is to add 'clear' button to 
filter field.

5.8.1
Full ack.
Other solution is to check if file has extension, and when negative give 
error message and redisplay file dialog with previous name and location 
and focus in file type list.
